Activities: “I grew up in the Middle Georgia area and I devote a lot of time to my church - Rock Springs Church – Macon - where we engage in various forms of community outreach. I lead worship every week and I enjoy encouraging others through that outlet. We also support the Rescue Mission of Middle Georgia, which is a powerful organization that helps get people and families in our community off the streets and provide valuable resources for them. I serve in these ways weekly and it is one of the things I enjoy most – helping our community and giving back.

“I incorporate values of service into my work at Middle Georgia State as I make myself available to students and their parents at almost all times in order to answer their questions and make the admissions process as simple as possible. I genuinely enjoy meeting students and their families and showing them around campus, informing them on all the opportunities they potentially have here. It’s rewarding when you work with a student to get accepted and you can see how excited they are about their future.”
